Le Coup du siècle (LITTÉRATURE GÉNÉRALE)

The tone swings between funny and brutal, making it hard to tell if the humor is a coping mechanism or a way to highlight the struggles. I'm curious about what inspired that approach.

The gritty realism really brought the setting to life, but I wonder how much of it was based on real experiences or research.

The shifting viewpoints added depth but also complexity. I'm interested in whether this was planned from the beginning or evolved during writing.
